Frequently asked Questions about Tooth Extraction
How much does a tooth extraction cost in NZ?
Our tooth extractions typically start from $250, and we price them case by case based on the tooth and difficulty.
How much is a tooth extraction in Auckland?
Our Auckland tooth extraction prices usually start from $250, then change depending on the tooth’s size, location, and complexity.
What affects tooth extraction cost (simple vs surgical, X-rays, infection)?
Extraction cost depends on the type of extraction and how complex the tooth is to remove.
- Simple (non-surgical): no gum or bone removal, and stitches are rarely needed
- Surgical: may involve cutting gum or bone, splitting the tooth, and sometimes stitches
- We also consider factors like the location and whether it is severely damaged or infected
Can I get a quote for the tooth removal cost before treatment?
Yes, we recommend booking a consultation so we can assess the tooth and provide an accurate quote before treatment.
How long does it take to heal after a tooth extraction?
Most people can expect the area to heal in around 7 to 10 days, although recovery varies by tooth and extraction type.
How do I prevent dry socket after an extraction?
To help prevent dry socket, protect the blood clot and follow our aftercare advice, especially in the first 24 hours.
- Do not rinse your mouth for the first 24 hours
- Do not use straws, and avoid sucking and spitting
- Do not smoke, as it can break down the clot and slow healing
- Rest and avoid heavy exercise, and stick to soft foods
Do you do urgent extractions for severe toothache?
Yes, we can help with an urgent toothache, and when possible, we see you on the same day to relieve pain, then remove the tooth if it cannot be saved.
